| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses a study suggesting that "the combination of fertigation (application of fertilizer via the irrigation system) and SDI [subsurface drip irrigation] could provide quality turfgrass while reducing possible nitrate-nitrogen contamination and water use." Notes that "treatments were arranged as three fertigation frequencies times five fertigation rates [in a block design]." Indicates that the most optimal treatment for turfgrass quality is potentially above Environmental Protection Agency limits, but offers that "a fertigation rate of 12.2 kg N/ha/month [kilograms of nitrogen per hectare per month] produced a quality turfgrass." |
